    Abstract
    This article explores the musical practices of pre-teen girls in an Australian after school care centre. The girls’ practices constituted “serious play” as they attempted to transform and reconfigure the space and challenge the power relations of the institutional setting both musically and sexually. After providing a snapshot of the girls’ play, the article concludes that their musical engagement in after school care was related to constantly shifting fields of power and a struggle over western cultural beliefs regarding asexual childhood.This article explores the musical practices of pre-teen girls in an Australian after school care centre.
